Do You Enjoy....

....Gaining Confidence?Spend the summer learning to sail, taught by expert instructors. As you learn, your confidence level grows. And not just in your boat-handling skills.

....Overcoming Challenges?You'll be challenged against the majestic winds and seas of Lake Michigan. Are you game-on?

....Making New Friends?You'll make friends for life. Not just from sharing time in sailing class. The tribe also bands together for community service projects. These activities bring young people together in a life-affirming way; and develop lifelong leadership skills.​
